Neat!  I knew there was some way of selecting that, but couldn't remember
it and also couldn't find them in the FM.  Didn't someone complain about
the terrible indexes on Oracle manuals?  Let me add my voice to that
particular clamor.

If the db_name will do just as well you can use

     sys_context('USERENV', 'DB_NAME') to obtain the database name and not
have to grant access to any of the v$ tables.  There's also
ora_database_name which is a function that takes no arguments and returns
<db_name>.<domain_name> Both of these can "selected from dual"

How about something like this?  Of course, it requires that the user have
select access to v$instance -- maybe there's another place to find this.
You could do some sort of batch to reference the $ORACLE_SID instead, but
the advantage of this is you can put it into glogin.sql or login.sql -- or
maybe not.  I just tried doing that and it didn't affect anything.  Hmm.
Oh, well, this may help you...

set heading off
set term off
set feedback off
spool set_sqlprompt.lst
select 'set sqlprompt "' || instance_name || '> "'
from v$instance
/
spool off
@set_sqlprompt.lst
set heading on
set term on
set feedback on

Hi,

Is there a way to get the SID or database name
displayed in the command prompt of SQL*Plus? Can this
be generated dynamically if I perform a "CONNECT
<user>/<pw>" ?

Thanks!
